Eight Essentials of Inquiry-Based Science, K-8
Editat de Elizabeth Hammermanen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 sep 2005
Are you both fascinated and baffled by inquiry-based science? Do you want to tap the strength of inquiry-based science to help your students build deeper understandings? Do you want to use inquiry-based science to foster high-quality instruction across the educational board? This guide provides clear and simple explanations for engaging students in meaningful and hands-on, minds-on ways of understanding science.
Eight Essentials of Inquiry-Based Science, K-8 breaks each essential into sample lessons that include sample data, discussion questions, and tools such as graphic organizers and analogies. Hammerman draws on more than 20 years experience in the fields of science instruction and professional development to address basic and complex principles related to inquiry, including:
· How to discuss data, information, models, graphics, and experiences
· How to interact with one another to strengthen knowledge and skills
· How to extend learning through guided or open-inquiry investigations and research
· How to apply new learning and research-based best practices for improving student achievement
· When you harness the immense power of inquiry-based learning, you can fully discover the inquisitive nature of each of your students!
